    How do I remove pops and clicks from vinyl rips?

    I have a few and I used Wavepad to rip the vinyl. Its much the same as Audacity and it has a feature that you can use to remove them manually or automatically however the latter does not seem to work. Any ideas?

    In audacity you zoom in until you can see dots on the waveform, you then select the pencil tool & re-draw the waveform.

    There's no other way round it mate, if you wanna remove all your pops & clicks it's gonna take some time....

    just remove the pops that are louder than the music so it can be amped properly & leave the rest in. If people want to remove more pops they can do it there self (as long as its a wav rip)

    i tend to find the pops on the waveform, highlight em and then mute them out.

    simples

    Cool, I have that program, I must say I was a little daunted looking at it which is why I have not yet used it to restore my audio, But I will try it out. Also Haze I like your Idea....

    if you treat each channel independently it's even better fella.

    i find that auto depop/declick programs are either totally brutal and hammer the sound as a whole or they do nothing.
